Your county government must have been napping on that one...

The FIRST thing the NWS office does is alert the NAWAS system for weather
warnings, then they type in the warning into AFOS...then it goes out via
NOAA radio......

The NAtional WArning System has been in place since the 1950's and is
basically one giant conference call telephone....if your EOC wasn't
paying attention then they should take the blame....and the sirens belong
to the county or municipality....NWS does not control them
